Comment: 475,000gns yearling; brother to four-time stakes winner Antonia De Vega, and three other winners; dam Listed-placed 7f winner (100), half-sister to Prix Jacques Le Marois winner Al Wukair; eyecatching C&D debut on Derby weekend, slowly away and not clear run when strong-finishing third (second has won since); Futurity Stakes entry, major player.

Comment: Made it 3-3 in Group 1 Phoenix Stakes here 12 months ago; pulled hard when fourth in soft-ground Cheveley Park; won Group 3 Lacken Stakes at Naas (6f, good) on second start this season; flopped in the Commonwealth Cup when much too free; could bounce back.

Comment: 2023 Phoenix Stakes winner; disappointing last autumn (including in Ascot race won by Kind Of Blue) after a Group 3 win at Naas in the spring; after a very brief spell at stud, made a reassuring start to the campaign with a 5f Naas win in May; capable of a big run if at the top of his game.

Comment: Eight-time turf winner, including the Rockingham Handicap in 2023 and Tipperary conditions event last month; good efforts in competitive handicaps either side of that win, fourth to Keke in Rockingham and just ahead of Kendall Royal when fifth at Cork last time, having been hampered at start; place claims.

Comment: Both wins this term have been at Tipperary, including off 71 on penultimate; staying-on fourth to Gazelle d'Or in C&D premier handicap last time on quicker ground was a solid run; 4lb wrong here but rider's claim negates that.

Comment: Got off the mark in C&D handicap in March, winning by a head; best run since then at Galway a week ago when second over 7f; new headgear combination seemed to help then.

Secret Magician

Jockey: M W Hassett Trainer: Martin Hassett Age/Wt: 6/8-7 F: 047474 OR: 67

Comment: Curragh regular, two wins and five places from 25 visits; twice fourth here this term; took the same place in a 16-runner contest at Naas last Monday; hardly disadvantaged by being 2lb wrong, since rider claims 3lb.
